Well, when the episode began and I realised they'd laid the credits over the episode and dispensed with the usual OP sequence I figured something had to be special about this one. I was not disappointed.
A confrontation on a quiet country road, this really very oppressive setting. In the dark, in the rain, on the road into night, as Kasuga is faced with a choice he can't make. He breaks down with a confession of a different order. He's read lots of stuff, but he doesn't really understand Baudelaire or the others. He just wanted to feel different, smarter, better than his peers, but he's just a shithead like everybody else. He can't choose one so faces losing both.
Then the police arrive and drag the three of them back to town.
Wow. That was intense character drama and I can hardly wait to see what happens next.
